Abstract

For each odd n ≥ 5 we present a synchronizing Eulerian automaton with n states for which the minimum length of reset words is equal to n2-3n+4/2. We also discuss various connections between the reset threshold of a synchronizing automaton and a sequence of reachability properties in its underlying graph.
